These uncirculated Jamaican 1/2 Pennies survived the rubble at Ground Zero. Each coin is encapsulated in an exclusive United States Flag "WTC Ground Zero Recovery" label and graded Gem Uncirculated by PCGS. Nearly 11 years after the September 11, 2001 attacks, these coins remain one of the only genuine items from Ground Zero that has been certified and can be legally purchased.

These coins were recovered from the site in early November of 2001 and were transported by Brinks to PCGS. They were encapsulated in specially labeled holders for protection and preservation. A portion of all proceeds from the sale is donated to the 9/11 memorial and museum at the World Trade Center Site. Comes with 32 Page full color scrapbook full of stories and memorial listings as told from the people who were there!
